Arm Synopsys at Chiplet Summit

AI’s rapid expansion is reshaping semiconductor design. The compute and I/O needs of modern AI workloads have outgrown what traditional SoC scaling can deliver. As monolithic dies approach reticle limits, yields drop and costs rise, while analog and I/O circuits gain little from moving to advanced process nodes. To sustain … Read More

Specador Doc

One technical topic I always find intriguing is the availability of links between documentation and chip design. It used to be simple: there weren’t any. Architects wrote a specification (spec) in text, in Word if they had PCs, or using “troff” or a similar format if they were limited to Unix platforms. Then the hardware designers… Read More

Training in a Constrained Environment min

At a DAC Accellera panel this year there was some discussion on cross-company collaboration in training. The theory is that more collaboration would mean a larger training set and therefore higher accuracy in GenAI (for example in RTL generation). But semiconductor companies are very protective of their data and reports of copyrighted… Read More
